At night, Liangcheng Prefecture is quite lively in and outside the city.
Of course, not only these people were happy, but also the large and small cloth houses in Liangcheng Mansion.
Tonight, the Liangcheng Inn in Liangcheng Fucheng can be considered lively.
"The delivery time will be tomorrow at Youshi. By then, our small cloth shop will all make money. The longevity of our small cloth shop is all thanks to Mr. Su!" Guo Jiabu's shop Lord Guo He said with a smile on his face.
When the shop owners at the same table heard what Guo He said, they all nodded slightly in agreement, with smiles on their faces.
"Yes, thanks to Mr. Su. Otherwise, my cloth shop would have almost closed down." He Cai, the head of the He family, said with a smile on his face.
As for He Cai and Guo He, they are now in their forties, and their bodies are not bad. It is just that their business abilities are a bit poor, which is why their business has never been successful. What's getting better.
Of course, these two cloth shops are not the only ones like this, there are also other small cloth shops.
For these small cloth shops, this is indeed thanks to Su Hu, the head of the Su family, the big cloth shop in Fucheng, Liangcheng.
Although the money has not been earned yet, but thinking that it will be earned tomorrow, everyone has a smile on their face, and there is no worry at all.
It can be seen how much the heads of these cloth shops trust Su Huna, the head of the Su family of the big cloth shop.
At this time, the more he thought about it, the happier he became. He picked up the wine glass in front of him, stood up, looked at Su Hu with a smile on his face, and said: "Master Su, thanks to you, the He family cloth shop is what it is today." , for this, He Mou proposes to you a glass." After saying this, He Cai drank the wine in the glass in one breath.
Seeing this, Su Hu, who was sitting on the chair, smiled really happily.
"Everyone is polite, you are polite. Our Su family is a big merchant in Liangcheng Prefecture. This order will help you make a lot of money. You have all said it, you have said it. If your cloth business can prosper, it is also me. Su Hu’s big wish, you all don’t have to be polite.”
"Come on, come on! Eat wine! Eat wine!"
When Su Hu shouted, the business owners sitting at the same table picked up the wine glasses in front of the table and drank together.
The happiest ones are the small cloth shops. As for the big cloth shops, although I feel a little unhappy in my heart, I think that I can make a little money this time. In my heart, I also feel happy. It's not that big of an upset.
On one side, the cloth bosses in Liangcheng Fucheng were happily eating wine and food, while on the other side, the prefect Gu Jiantong was still busy with militia matters.
Suddenly, the prefect Gu Jiantong stopped writing, raised his head, looked at the darkness outside the house, and shouted: "Yuan Chuang! Yuan Chuang!"
"Here we come." After responding, Yuan Chuang hurried over.
"Master, what can you tell me about the young one?" Yuan Chuang asked.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Magistrate Gu Jiantong did not answer immediately, but gestured with his hand.
Seeing this action, Yuan Chuang understood and took a few steps forward.
"How many days will it take for that to happen?" Magistrate Gu Jiantong asked in a low voice.
"Master, it will be tomorrow." Yuan Chuang replied.
Upon hearing this, the prefect Gu Jiantong came with a smile on his face and said to himself: "Time flies so fast. I am so busy that I have forgotten which day it is." After talking to himself, he looked at his servant Yuan Chuang, Magistrate Gu gave the order: "In that case, you should go down first. Handle this matter well, and you will be indispensable after it is completed."
"Thank you, Master. The younger one will go down first." Yuan Chuang said with a smile on his face.
After Yuan Chuang left, the smile on Gu Jiantong's face became even happier. After all, who wouldn't be happy about making money?
Unknowingly, it was already late at night.
At this time, all the major gates of Liangcheng Mansion have been closed, and few people are coming and going in the city. At this time, the cloth masters who were eating at Liangcheng Inn just said goodbye.
"Okay, see you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow, see you tomorrow."
I saw that the masters of the cloth shop were saying goodbye outside the Liangcheng Inn. At this time, they were so drunk that they could no longer walk. They had to be helped back by their own servants. Even Su Hu, the owner of the Su family cloth shop, was also drunk.
After the owners of these cloth shops left, the Liangcheng Inn became deserted. After all, it was already very late at night.
At this time, no one could be seen in Liangcheng Fucheng, and the moon in the sky was sliding down bit by bit towards the west.
The next day.
Some time before Youshi.
At this time, the dock outside Liangcheng Mansion was very busy, with various boats docked on the shore, and people coming and going from time to time.
At this time, I saw a man walking in front of the carriage, holding the horse rope tightly with one hand, and walking towards the dock. Not only this carriage, but also several others followed behind.
This carriage is open, that is, a carriage without a carriage. The carriage is tied with all kinds of silk.
When we arrived at the pier, the man walking in front stopped, so the horse also stopped.
Xia Houji, the head of the Xia family cloth shop, and Zhang Sheng, the housekeeper, who were following behind the carriage group, walked forward slowly.
Looking at the scene around the pier, Xiahouji smiled slightly: "I didn't expect that our cloth shop would be here so early."
Listening to the words of the master Xia Houji, the butler Zhang Sheng on the side came with a smile on his face: "Sir, how many taels of silver do you estimate these goods can be sold for?"
After listening to the words of the butler Zhang Sheng, Xiahouji looked at the goods of his nine carriages with a smile on his face and said: "Whatever, it must be a few thousand taels of silver."
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
After hearing this, the butler Zhang Sheng's face became happy for his master Xiahouji.
Seeing that no one from the cloth shop had come around, Xia Houji, the head of the Xia family, couldn't wait any longer and asked Zhang Shenglai, the steward at the side: "What time is it now?"
Zhang Sheng: "If you go back to me, it's almost time for you."
"Okay, let's wait a little longer." After Xiahouji said, he walked around his carriages. As he walked, he looked at his goods with a smile on his face, and then thought about the money. The smile on Xiahouji's face became even brighter.
Not long after, the goods from those small cloth shops arrived, but they were not as large as those from Xiahou Ji's.
After waiting for a long time, the carriages from the big cloth stores in Liangcheng Mansion arrived.
Looking at the carriages of various cloth shops, not to mention, the Xiahouji family is definitely at the forefront.
"Merchan Xia, how many goods do you have?" He Cai, the owner of Hejiabu Store, came over with envious words.
Seeing that it was He Cai, the owner of the He family's cloth shop, and listening to He Cai's words, Xiahouji said with a smile on his face: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If it weren't for Mr. Su, would we, the cloth dealers, be able to do it?" I don’t know if I will continue to open the business. It happens that the cloth shop can’t sell much cloth. Since there are people willing to accept it, I, Xia, am willing to give everything I can. Even if I can’t make much, it’s better than keeping this pile of cloth.”
Hearing what Xia Houji said, the head of the He family, He Cai, smiled slightly: "That's indeed the truth."
"When will the delivery person arrive?" Xiahou Ji asked.
After hearing this, He Cai said: "You should have arrived at this time. Mr. Su hasn't come yet. I guess he will arrive when he comes."
As soon as he said this, he saw Su Hu, the owner of the Su family's cloth shop, walking over with the goods of several carriages. Seeing that the owners of many cloth shops had arrived, Su Hu's face was filled with emotion. smile.
However, after waiting for so long, the owners of all the cloth shops were waiting at the pier with their goods, but the docking person was not seen yet.
Seeing this, Xia Houji, the head of the Xia family cloth shop, couldn't wait any longer and walked towards Su Hu.
It seems that the name given by Xiahouji's father is quite consistent with Xiahouji's various behaviors.
"Master Su, when will this person arrive?" Xiahou Ji asked with a smile on his face.
Su Hu shook his head, looked at Xiahou Ji's excited look, and said, "It's already the Youshi period. It should be coming soon. They won't break the contract."
Listening to Su Hu's words, Xiahou Ji wandered around the pier and waited.
Sure enough, not long after waiting, the person who picked up the goods arrived.
But why is there only one boat?
The person who received the goods was a thin man, wearing a bamboo hat and a raincoat. Looking at his appearance, no one would doubt that he was the person who received the goods.
